........................................................................

On May 1o, 19o8 (the thirty-fourth year of Guangxu), the Qing court sent a telegram announcing the death of Cixi and Guangxu. He also announced a state funeral, ordered the whole country to follow the old practice of being vegetarian for three months, and banned marriages among the people in March, etc.

Of course, the areas ruled by the revolutionary party will not buy it, and not only do they not mourn, but they set off firecrackers and fireworks non-stop, just like the Chinese New Year.

Hunan is an exception, because it is Tan Yanmin who now rules Hunan, this guy is a big man of the constitutionalist faction, and he is not as hostile to the Qing court as the revolutionary party, but on the contrary, he still has a lot of feelings for the Qing court. After receiving the news of the deaths of Cixi and Guangxu, although he did not fully comply with the wishes of the Qing court, he immediately announced mourning activities throughout the province.

Although some of his revolutionary-leaning men opposed it, he insisted on ordering it to be followed. In his opinion, this move is nothing, Huang Xing's gang has been forced to Chenzhou and Guiyang, and the rest of the people are also crushed to death, and they can't make any waves.

Even if the revolutionary party in other provinces is not accustomed to it, at most it is just a few words, what can be the great deal? Before the Qing court has not eliminated the great enemy, can it still come to Hunan to bite my old Tan?

It is undeniable that Lao Tan's idea is right, at least in the eyes of most people, and now those who oppose this practice can only protest with their mouths, including those revolutionary parties that are dissatisfied with it.

The revolutionaries believe that the time really should be given to the big picture. On the premise that the common enemy of the Qing court has not been eliminated, the revolutionary party and the constitutionalist faction are still considered to be one trench, and even if there are any contradictions between the two sides, they must take into account the overall situation. This is also the rule on the kind of government.

But Lao Tan did everything he could to miss the Science and Socialist Party next door. Strictly speaking, it's not that it's a miscalculation, it's a miscalculation. He completely calculated the reaction of the CSD according to the current mainstream thinking, and if the CSD was a traditional organization, Lao Tan's calculation could not be wrong.

Unfortunately, the CSD is not fundamentally a traditional organization, it is a completely new political party with a way of thinking that is unique on the planet. There is a difference between the way of thinking of the CSD and other organizations for more than 300 years, or the "generation gap". There will be a "generation gap" between the two adjacent generations, and now it is seventeen or eighteen generations behind, so do you need to say it?

The most important thing is that the Science and Technology Socialist Party has the strength to open up, and this difference is even greater, so Tan Yanmin completely miscalculated the reaction of the Science and Technology Socialist Party, so he was tragic.

The "overall situation" that Tan Yanmin and others believe is not the overall situation of the Science and Technology Socialist Party. Because the so-called "overall situation" is the interests of the strong themselves, and the strong themselves are the "overall situation", so only the weak can "take care of the overall situation". In the view of the top level of the CSD, since it is the strongest force in the country, the interests of the CSD are the "overall situation" itself, and it is up to other organizations to "take into account the overall situation."

As for Tan Yanmin and the Hunan Constitutionalist faction, what are these things? Why do you want us to take care of your overall situation? Last time, we didn't take you all together by the way, because we were short of manpower, and we counted your fortune as great. Now that you're going to jump out and hit the knife, let us teach you how to be a new person!

This is basically the same idea from top to bottom of the CSD.

Before the "Ding Wei Revolution" last year, Kyodo News conveniently occupied some territory in Hunan, mainly the three counties of Shimen, Cili, and Yongding in Lizhou, the three counties of Longshan, Sangzhi, and Yongshun (Dayong) in Yongshun Prefecture, and Huarong County in Yuezhou Prefecture. In addition to the county seat, most of the territory outside the city in these places is controlled by the Kyodo Society.

After the "Ding Wei Revolution", the Hunan military government had been arguing with Kyodo News and later the Science and Technology Socialist Party for this matter, demanding restitution. The Science and Technology Socialist Party and its predecessor, Kyodo Society, have always had an attitude towards this, since Lao Tzu occupies it, it is Lao Tzu, and I don't accept you to beat me!

Because of this, the relationship between the Hunan military government and the Science and Technology Socialist Party has always been bad, whether Huang Xing is in power or Tan Yanmin is in power.

The geographical location of Hunan is very important, bordering Jiangxi in the east, Sichuan and Guizhou in the west, Guangdong and Guangxi in the south, and Hubei in the north. Natural resources and human resources are also abundant. If it weren't for the lack of manpower at that time, the Science and Technology Socialist Party would not have just occupied a few counties and stopped, and would have taken all of them a long time ago.

After a few months of rest and expansion, the dilemma of the lack of manpower of the CSD has been alleviated, and now that Tan Yanmin has jumped out to echo the Qing court, it is an excuse to send it to the door.

Thus, on the morning of 14 May, the third day after Hunan Governor Tan Yanhong announced that the whole province would carry out mourning activities, the Socialist Party sent a telegram to the whole country, saying: The Hunan Consultative Bureau and the Governor Tan Yanhong attached to the Qing court have betrayed the revolution, and the Socialist Party will never let go of any revolutionary traitor and will resolutely crack down on him! We solemnly advise the Hunan Consultative Bureau and Tan Yanhong to recognize the reality, rein in the precipice, immediately surrender to the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army, and strive for leniency. Otherwise, it will be severely punished, don't say that it is unpredictable!

Tan Yanmin and the group of constitutionalists in the Hunan Consultative Bureau were dumbfounded. They never imagined that there would be such an outcome. This Socialist Party is too unreasonable, and it just doesn't play according to the rules at all!

The members of the Consultative Council suddenly became ants on a hot pot, how can this be done? Those bandits never joked, they always said that they would beat them. Their anger is not like the other ones, which are just talking about cannons, and the anger of the bandits is always expressed only by action.

At half past one o'clock in the afternoon of the 14th, three hours after the announcement, the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army in Hubei began to attack. This time, the CSD dispatched a total of 8 regiments, 4 artillery battalions, 7 independent battalions, and more than 10 local companies, with a total strength of more than 386 people.

The main force consisted of 5 regiments, 3 artillery battalions, 2 separate battalions, and they took the waterway. One of the regiments, an independent battalion, under the cover of artillery fire from the Yangtze River Fleet (formerly the Hubei New Army Fleet) of the Science and Technology Party, was in Chengling Jideng 6 and went straight to the Yuezhou capital.

The remaining troops were escorted by the fleet and continued to advance, plunging straight into Dongting Lake and then turning into the Xiangjiang River. At this time, the Hunan constitutionalists also reacted, and they immediately organized a fleet to sail into the Xiangjiang waterway and scuttled near Jinggang as an obstacle.

This trick is still quite effective, at least the Yangtze River Fleet of the Science and Technology Party will not be able to enter. However, this is nothing to the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army, and if the warship can't get in, it can't get in, so let's just push it over from the 6th ground.

As a result, most of the troops were in Xiangyin, and the resistance of the Xiangyin defenders collapsed in the face of artillery fire. Two hours later, Xiangyin was liberated. The Yangtze River Fleet headed for the Yuan River with an independent battalion.

The other troops were not idle, and when the main force ascended the 6th Castle Tomb, they also attacked in several directions at the same time. One regiment was responsible for solving Yongshun Province, another was responsible for solving Lizhou, and another regiment was responsible for attacking Changde. Each regiment was assigned several independent battalions and local companies, and the artillery battalion was assigned to attack Changde.

........................................................................

The Socialist Party has always said that it will do what it says, and several directions will work together, and the northern part of Hunan will suddenly be on fire everywhere, and it will quickly spread to the central and southern regions. The emergency telegrams from all over the country were one after another, and Governor Tan was immediately frightened. He knew the fighting power of the Science and Technology Socialist Party, and the Hubei New Army was so bullish that it was all flown away by other people's cars like chopping melons and vegetables, and these few guns in Hunan were not enough for people to eat.

Don't look at this Tan Dadu Governor Sha is too short, and he is never soft when he cuts down political enemies, but he is just a politician and a fighter, and he can only be blind to military struggles. The thing he regrets the most now is that he drove Huang Xing and Song Jiaoren's gang away, or there is one who goes up to fight the thunder now. Like that Huang Xing, known as "Huang Keqiang in a hundred battles and a hundred victories" (please understand it the other way around), he has always been defeated and fought repeatedly, his willpower is absolutely leveraged, and he dares to rush to the front line, and his courage is also very powerful. Although this veritable "Master Huang" is a little more skilled in commanding, he is no better than Lao Tan, a scholar.

But it's too late to regret it now, the Huaxinghui gang was driven to Chenzhou and Guiyang by him, and they have completely turned against him. Now seeing him being beaten, Huang Xing and they don't know how happy they are. If you want to ask them for help now, it's a dream. He immediately sent a telegram to Rossi, asking for a negotiated ceasefire, and Rossi's answer was: If you don't surrender, you die!

Now among the armed forces controlled by the Hunan Consultative Bureau, the patrol battalion and the militia group should not be counted on, and it will be difficult for those guys to deal with the bandits. Only the 25th Mixed Association is slightly decent, and Tan Yanmin can only hope that their character will explode and they will be able to withstand the attack of the Science and Socialist Party for a few days. But there is still half of the twenty-fifth mixed association, and the other half followed Huang Xing and ran away, and only God knows if they can withstand it.

On the other hand, at the same time, he also sent telegrams to the leaders of the revolutionary parties in other provinces, promising countless benefits, hoping that they would come to mediate the "misunderstanding". Among them is Sun Wen.

Sun Wen was sheltering from the limelight in Vietnam at this time. After the failure of the Zhennanguan uprising last year, he was frightened by the brutality of the battlefield, so he reverted to becoming a remote revolutionary. Then, the Chinlian uprising, which he commanded remotely, struck the streets again, and the wolf fled back to Vietnam. Seeing that the revolutionary parties in the whole country have risen one after another, most of them have succeeded, and now they have become governors and commanders.

So many revolutionary organizations have already divided one side, but as a result, the revolutionary "leader" Sun Wen is still tossing and turning around, hitting walls everywhere, and repeatedly defeated. Sun Wen was anxious in his heart, if this situation continued, even if he overthrew the Manchu Qing and established a republic in the future, it would not be his turn to do anything to Sun Wen.

The League is now only a loose alliance, Sun Wen is only a nominal "leader", and now several major member organizations have successfully revolted and occupied one side, and everyone has money, soldiers, and territory in their hands, and they have all won their own bloody battles, so why should they listen to you Sun Wen? Now even Huang Xing in Hunan and Zhao Sheng in Jiangsu don't buy him much. This is also normal, after all, brain-dead fans are very few, and those who are desperate on the front line will be convinced of this kind of incompetent, brave, and moneyless "three no leaders" who can only talk about it.

Sun Wen himself is also very aware of his situation, if he doesn't win a piece of land, then he will only be a "revolutionary pioneer" in the future, and he will only think about politics and power. So after receiving Tan Yanmin's telegram, he felt that it was an opportunity, and if he could persuade the Socialist Party to stop and deduct a few mansions from Lao Tan as a reward, it would not be impossible. You can even take advantage of the power of the Science and Technology Socialist Party to force Lao Tan to leave, and you can also get a governor to be a governor.
